Annapolis Junction, MD (On-Site/Office)
We are actively hiring a Hardware Design Engineer with TS/SCI clearance and polygraph to join our Enterprise Services & Solutions Division working in Annapolis Junction, MD. We are responsible for providing field programmable gate array (FPGA) and printed circuit board (PCB) software and hardware engineering services. In this role you will design and test new integrated circuits and hardware components for a wide variety of signal processing applications and research
RESPONSIBILITIES
Design and test new integrated circuits and hardware components for a wide variety of signal processing applications and research
Design, document, and develop code (to include firmware) for digital signal processors or other programmable hardware devices such as Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) and Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) hardware
Analyze the function of existing integrated circuits and hardware components for the purpose of reverse engineering the hardware and firmware
Conduct the necessary hardware engineering and related functions to modify and adapt vendor-manufactured hardware to meet special Government needs and contingencies.
Assist with designing new products and processes and improving and maintaining existing products
Communicate with the other engineering personnel to coordinate the interrelated design and assure project completion
Conduct design analysis on components and/or assemblies to assist in the development process by ensuring designs are cost efficient, able to be manufactured, and reliable; Apply ASIC or FPGA place and route (P&R) tools with various libraries to create physical implementations of designs
Develop and maintain documentation for the P&R design flows; Assist with de-processing electronic components and retrieving stored firmware or software using approved reverse engineering procedures
Design new products and processes and improving and maintaining existing products
Work with tool and library vendors to develop solutions for designers' P&R design challenges; perform the de-processing of electronic components and retrieving stored firmware or software using approved reverse engineering procedures
Integrate new P&R tools, P&R tool updates, and ASIC or FPGA design libraries into Government's computer-aided design environment, documents the use of those tools and libraries, and assist other physical designers to successfully complete their specific P&R design tasks
Lead the designs of new products and processes and improve and maintain existing products
Provide technical leadership to less experienced engineers
Perform the de-processing of electronic components and retrieving stored firmware or software using approved reverse engineering procedures and develops improved procedures
Direct and check the work of other hardware design engineers
EDUCATION & EXPERIENCE
Must possess an active TS/SCI clearance with polygraph
Experience as an HDE in an integrated circuit or microelectronic component design or reverse engineering of the same is required.
Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or Computer Engineering from an accredited college or university is required, or five years of additional hardware design engineering experience may be substituted for a bachelor's degree.
Experience with troubleshooting , breadboarding or prototyping electronics or setups with resistors, capacitors.
Strong C and Python programming skills; as well as experience coding/writing code for development platforms as mentioned above
Experience in system analysis
Familiarity with tools used in Failure Analysis is a plus, Familiar with Printed Circuit Board creation
Experience with semiconductor physics or fab knowledge is a plus.
